Structure and electronic properties of single–walled zigzag BN and B3C2N3 nanotubes using first-principles methods
The structure and the electronic properties of single-walled zigzag BN and B3C2N3 nanotubes (n, 0; n=4–10) were investigated using first-principles calculations based on a density functional theory. A plane–wave basis set with periodic boundary conditions in conjunction with Vanderbilt ultrasoft pseudo-potential was employed. The energy gap of ZB3C<su...

متن کاملFirst-principles calculations for nitrogen-containing single-walled carbon nanotubes
We present calculations for possible configurations of nitrogen-containing single-walled carbon nanotubes and their electronic properties obtained with the ab initio tight-binding FIREBALL method. It is found that nitrogen atoms can be energetically incorporated into the carbon network in three forms: Substitution, substitution with formation of a vacancy structure, and chemical adsorption. The...
متن کاملSelective bundling of zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes.
A simple, high throughput fractionation procedure for aqueous/SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) suspensions of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is presented, which yields thin bundles of semiconducting-SWNTs with small chiral angles. To demonstrate this we show the photoluminescence signatures of nanotube suspensions that contain almost exclusively zigzag and near-zigzag tubes. Starting suspen...
متن کاملHalf-Metallic Properties of Single-Walled Polymeric Manganese Phthalocyanine Nanotubes
We present a theoretical study of the electronic and magnetic properties of single-walled manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) nanotubes which can be thought of as rolled-up ribbons of the two-dimensional (2D) polymeric MnPc sheet. Our density functional theory calculations show that all of the MnPc nanotubes investigated here are half-metals with 100% spin polarization around the Fermi level. Follo...
